Chemical Composition of D2 Tool Steel

D2 is a high-carbon, high-chromium cold work tool steel. Its high carbide volume is the reason it delivers strong abrasion resistance in demanding tooling environments.

ElementContent (%)
C1.40 – 1.60
Cr11.0 – 13.0
Mo0.70 – 1.20
V0.50 – 1.10

Typical Applications

D2 round bar is commonly selected for tooling where abrasive wear is the dominant failure mode and impact load is relatively controlled.

  • Blanking dies
  • Punches and die inserts
  • Shear blades
  • Thread rolling dies
